Comments on: Boise Weekly vs. Idaho Statesman’s Scene http://idahoradionews.com/index.php/2009/11/25/boise-weekly-vs-idaho-statesman-scene/ News, notes and the inside scoop on Idaho's radio industry & beyond Wed, 21 Sep 2011 20:41:58 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9 hourly 1 By: Stevie M. http://idahoradionews.com/index.php/2009/11/25/boise-weekly-vs-idaho-statesman-scene/comment-page-1/#comment-94775 Stevie M. Fri, 29 Jan 2010 21:45:26 +0000 http://idahoradionews.com/?p=4359#comment-94775 I have read both the Boise Weekly and The Scene. I have to say that I am much more impressed with The Scene than with BW. It seems that BW often writes their stories with much bias. They rarely show both sides to the story. They have proven themselves to be quite liberal and quite anti-Christian in their comments. That is not to say that The Scene is conservative, nor does it promote the Christian theme. The difference is that The Scene does not push their not-too-conservative agenda. Aren't most media resources usually more liberal than conservative? BW tends to go overboard often, and have even gone as far as bashing others for their political or religious views. I feel that The Scene has MUCH more to offer. They cover more, and they are MUCH more professional. They can actually write reviews without commenting on their personal political or religious biases. BW's focus seems to be the north-end liberal, yuppy audience, while The Scene has something for everyone. The Scene doesn't use phrases or negative slams against others, and it is appropriate for all ages. I do not have any interest in BW. Their reporters are very unprofessional and often use their prejudices to slam someone (or someone's business) just because they don't line up with their philosophies.

I dont agree with all the BW topics covered...but increasingly Do agree I can live without the Idaho Statesman. Perhaps it was not Deeds intent to come off that way, but it does appear the Idaho Statesman has lost touch with the people that used to be readers/subscribers.
